Well, no chirps since last night >> thinking positive that it made its way out.
Thanks everyone >> ok know the comedians were only trying to make me feel better about it.
Brought many a fallen bird home in a cardboard box and lined it with cotton wool when I was little, never seemed to survive though.
Read recently that you should just leave them, as more often than not the parents will be watching and eventually the little one will recover and find the strength to get back to safety.

Talking of things in your loft, every year get bats nesting under my eaves, can hear them squeeking. Rang the council as worried may do some damage or carry some sort of disease. Didn't realize that they were a protected species at this stage and the council lad said "oh, you lucky thing" Uh !! .. you don't wake up to black droppings all over yer car every morning. However, he put my mind at rest that they wouldn't do any damage. Didn't get them last year and missing them now. Come back bats >> all is forgiven.
